Workplace safety doesn't begin on the day of an accident. The Labor Code requires the employer to establish technical safety rules, to inform and train employees upon hiring, and to always keep the risk assessment document for every workplace on the premises. Accident reports are kept for at least three years and submitted to the inspector whenever requested. Violations of technical safety and qualification rules fall under the most severe sanctions, up to 50 times the monthly minimum wage, while failure to maintain documents is punishable by a fine of up to 30 times.
